Introduction: Dyslipidemia is one of the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease in diabetes mellitus. Early detection and treatment of dyslipidemia in type-2 diabetes mellitus can prevent risk for atherogenic cardiovascular disorder. Objective: To determine the frequency of dyslipidemia in patients with type II diabetes mellitus presenting in a tertiary care hospital for routine check-up Materials and Methods Study design: Cross sectional study Setting: Department of Medicine (South Medical Ward), Mayo Hospital, Lahore Duration: Six months i.e. 1st July 2020 to 31st December 2020. Data collection procedure: Total 220 patients fulfilling selection criteria were enrolled in the study. Then blood samples were obtained and sent to the pathology laboratory of the hospital for assessment of lipid profile. Reports were assessed and level of cholesterol and triglycerides were noted and dyslipidemia was labeled, if levels were high. All this data was recorded in proforma. Results: In this study, the mean age of patients in this study was 52.71 ± 7.46 years. There were 104 (47.3%) males and 116 (52.7%) females. There were 92 (41.8%) patients of normal BMI, 72 (32.7%) patients were overweight and 56 (25.5%) patients were obese. The mean duration of diabetes was 18.30 ± 3.92 months. Dyslipidemia was diagnosed in 97 (44.09%) patients. Conclusion: Results of this study showed high frequency of dyslipidemia among diabetic patients. Key words: Dyslipidemia, Type II, Diabetes mellitus, Lipid profile

Objectives: To determine the frequency of silent cardiac ischemia in type II diabetes mellitus patients presenting to tertiary care facility. Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted from 20th October 2017 to 20th April 2018 at Department of Medicine Jinnah Hospital Lahore. After a detailed history, measurement of height, blood pressure, weight, fasting blood sugar, body mass index of 237 patients were recorded, and electrocardiography (ECG) was done before and after exercise tolerance testing (ETT). Changes in ECG were assessed and person labeled as having silent cardiac ischemia or not depending on the outcome of the ECG. Results: Mean age was 54.9 ± 5.9 (range: 45 – 63) years. There were 144 male patients and 93 female patients The mean duration of type II diabetes mellitus in the study population was 10.0 ± 2.6 (range: 6 – 15) years. The frequency of silent cardiac ischemia was found to be 45.1%. Increasing age, prolonged duration of diabetes mellitus, history of smoking and hypertension, and increased body mass index were significantly related to silent cardiac ischemia (p-value< 0.05). Conclusion: Silent cardiac is quite prevalent in our population that demands urgent efforts to diagnose this condition earlier for better future outcomes.
